Elementary my dear Jaffar

It's all based on the assumptions I made in post #5:
1. Max TG recline of 135 degrees corresponds to 13" of horizontal movement at the top of the seat back.
2. Seat back is 30" high from point of rotation.

I really don't know how accurate 1. is, but 2. is probably in-the-ballpark.


That being said, looking at the picture of the TG seat that Savage25 linked to, it sure doesn't look like 135 degree recline....
And the SQ recline seems similar to the TG recline. More pitch with TG, but similar recline.
